Features:
- Supports non-intrusive DeltaV I/O simulation and Ethernet I/O device integration.
- Presents virtual I/O capacity to the controller and connects many Ethernet devices through protocol drivers.
- Supports simplex, dual-simplex, and protocol-dependent redundant arrangements.
VE4026 is the M-series Virtual I/O Module 2 used between a DeltaV controller and either a simulation environment or an Ethernet I/O device network.
With DeltaV Mimic, the module simulates M-series I/O and digital-bus field devices without requiring control-strategy changes, supporting realistic acceptance testing and operator training.
For live integration, protocol drivers let the module exchange data with Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP devices while DeltaV Explorer retains the familiar card-and-channel engineering workflow.

- Evaluates DeltaV control strategies without changing their configured I/O structure.
- Simulates M-series I/O and supported digital-bus interfaces through DeltaV Mimic.
- Supports up to 64 simulated DeltaV I/O modules per controller for testing and operator training.
- IOD-4111 provides Modbus TCP/IP Master communication for supported Ethernet device integration.
- IOD-4112 and IOD-4116 provide the documented EtherNet/IP scanner and ODVA protocol options.
- User-configurable addressing and virtual-card mapping adapt the module to simplex, dual-simplex, or supported redundant layouts.
- Mounts beside the DeltaV controller on a supported two-wide horizontal or four-wide vertical carrier.
- Requires a dedicated DeltaV system power supply and uses two 100BaseTX RJ45 Ethernet ports.
- VIMNet Explorer supports module setup, addressing, diagnostics, and firmware maintenance.
- Supports software acceptance testing by simulating DeltaV I/O and digital-bus behavior before field commissioning.
- Connects DeltaV controllers to dynamic Mimic process models for operator training.
- Integrates Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP equipment and supports redundant VIM2 pairs where the selected protocol permits.
